My meat chickens just ate a bunch of rhubarb leaves and I'm wondering if their meat is still ok to eat? Can I slaughter them in the next few days, or should I wait. I know that oxalic acid harms the kidneys, but does it go anywhere else in the body so that it could get into people eating the birds. I'm sorry I don't know much about how that stuff works.
 
I was just wondering if it is contaminated. It's probably not. I was hoping that someone knows for sure. It's ok though, I'm just going to wait longer before butchering them.

Thanks for taking time to reply.
